Met with the leathersmith. He's making me a bracer to hold my phone like Orcrist's. Then I stumbled on a massive shoe sale while looking for boots at the mall (at the store I was looking at) walked out with more than I could carry myself.... won't need shoes again for a while! (I'm not a big shoe person, this is the first time I've gone on a binge like this since 2000 - which was the first time I ever did it). Walked to get a hair appointment, ended up doing a walk-in so it's all done. Jacket needs some stitching and I need to start embroidering the conductive thread (I think it will look cooler like that).

Good morning everybody! Rain woke me up. AZ those steaks sound awesome. Ice great to hear Mrs. I .is up for retail therapy. If she could find a shoe sale like KtC found she would be on the mend! Going back to bed.

Leak frogs only need to get damp to chirp.
Hope you find it.

Hubby hung up my birdhouses yesterday.
He is trying to fix the outside faucet. It bangs when we shut it off. Makes all the plumbing in the house shake.
Scares the heck out of the cat!
Air in the pipes.
I'm not sure he fixed it yet.

WE LURV YOU TOO! Dork!!!
No greater love is lost than that not shared.

Costco has the really heavy, cement flower pots.
I should get some. No bend gardening!
At least for the blackberry bush. That thing wants to take over the world! Lucky it is against the house with a cement driveway all around it, or it would have.
Lots of thorns on it.

I like the cement pots, they never blow over, or move...even in a hurricane.

The problem with the heavy pots is that once you put dirt in them, they're immovable.

bangs when you shut it off or when you turn on the water? could be waterhammer. according to this site "The best way to identify if the noise is water hammer is to ask yourself "when does it happen?" If the noise occurs when you open a valve or a faucet, it is probably air in the pipes. If it occurs when a valve closes or the washer changes cycles, it is probably water hammer. If it occurs when a pump starts, it could be water hammer, air in the pipes, or both."
